Slang for "Goanna"

Added link at the top. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.232.71.224 (talk) 12:14, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wild assertion?

Under section Conservation there is a statement that " Malay "kampung" boys and young working class Malay men often catch and kill water monitors for their own amusement". Apart from not explaining what kampung means, this is a racial slur without substantiation and so should be removed. I would be interested if anyone could provide evidence of a higher prevalence of monitor killing in Malaysia compared to any other country, but I do not think there is any justification for an assertion that country people or people of Malay ancestry should be singled out as responsible.

Malaysian government reference

Hello @Mat Kiyan: Perhaps this archive https://web.archive.org/web/20201222161100/https://www.wildlife.gov.my/index.php/en/media-centre/archives/202-biawak-air-varanus-salvator-di-rumah-pak-lah will help. Invasive Spices (talk) 19 October 2022 (UTC)

I appreciate the tip. I have checked before, but it looks like I couldn't find any archived page from the site that that mentions the species let alone the weight that was cited. --Mat Kiyan (talk) 09:49, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Subspecies images

@User:BhagyaMani Why did you remove images of the subspecies? Its standard practice for species articles to show images of subspecies when the list of subspecies is provided. Several of those images are also of subspecies not depicted elsewhere in the article. Those images were very important and relevant, not just there for fun. Please fix. Bloopityboop (talk) 11:44, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, they should be INSIDE the table, not below. – BhagyaMani (talk) 14:56, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thats fair. But those were old images and I only recently created the table; until my last edits the subspecies list was a bulletpoint list. I simply hadn't gotten around to moving them into the table yet. In the future, please be more thoughtful and charitable when interpreting the reason why certain images are included in article, before you decide to remove them. Thanks for understanding and bringing back those images. Bloopityboop (talk) 22:09, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
